Abstract
A semiconductor structure of merged isolation and node trench construction is presented, along with a method of fabrication, wherein an isolation implant layer is formed at the intersection of the storage node, isolation trench and field isolation region. The isolation implant layer has higher concentration of implant species than the adjacent field isolation region and is positioned to prevent a parasitic leakage mechanism between the source/drain diffusion of the storage node and an adjacent bit line contact diffusion. Implantation occurs during memory structure fabrication through the deep trench sidewall near the upper surface of the substrate.
